How can I be more supportive. RB Ruth Barb May I'm an active Mormon girl. It has worked and my children are very protective of their father. For whatever reason, none of them ever seemed that interested in me I freely admit this could have been cluelessness on my partand so never turned serious. If all you are looking for is some non-serious dates to have a good time, you should be fine. And, whether she knows it or not she probably does know it but is in denialshe probably sees you as her ticket out of Oldmaidsville. I wanted so badly to marry a guy who had recently left the church. I would do it all over again and thank my lucky stars that I found this man, that he loves, and that I love him.

I've told her that but maybe she doesn't believe me. Money is not everything although the ex certainly has her share.
I'm a doctors wife, my husband is a speciality physician. If she identifies as a Mormon, then she probably takes her faith seriously, and it means a lot to her. I'd try to see if she will leave the religion, and if not, you should break it off. Of course they do.
